If you get anywhere near the fires, it can act as a breathing filter. Worst case, you can wet it and use it as a wash rag.   Logged     Peace, Joe   The administrator has disabled public write access. #506439 StarSergeant (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 386 Re:Long road trip.

Zip ties, and a small roll of electrical and duct tape because you never know.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #506440 Cody (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 687 Re:Long road trip.

Take a small first aid kit, not really useful if you have an accident but good for minor cuts or whatever. Sunscreen and remember to use it. I like to carry a couple bottles of drinking water also just in case. Hope you have a good trip and ride safe. I hope you got your tire problems taken care of too. Yes sir I just went and bought new tires and started over oh well.

Can of fix-a-flat. It's ugly and messes up the inside of hte wheels, but it will get you back to civilization. Quart of oil and perhaps some water purifying tablets wouldn't be a bad idea.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #506444 blue_star (User) Better to burn out than fade away!

On the water, I like to freeze a couple of bottles, it melts pretty quick but it's still colder that way if you need it. Most motels have small fridges these days so I just refreeze them at nite.   Logged     http://s1271.beta.photobucket.com/user/bluestar825/library/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #506445 Cody (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 687 Re:Long road trip.

That thing eats battery looking for a signal constantly.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #506449 blue_star (User) Better to burn out than fade away!

Quart of oil and perhaps some water purifying tablets wouldn't be a bad idea. I actually saw 2 bears cross the road in front of me in TN. Didn't seem too interested in attacking me tho. That was one of the high points of my trip. Never really expected to see a bear in the wild.   Logged     http://s1271.beta.photobucket.com/user/bluestar825/library/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #506452 txulrich (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 710 Re:Long road trip.

Don't forget to carry an extra propane tank. Hell, leave the bikes at home and rent a RV!!!   Logged     Peace, Joe   The administrator has disabled public write access.
